Was his disposal just not up to scratch, shame him and D'Aolia might be the mids of the pastCan't believe Szybowski is going undrafted. Thought he would have been picked around 20-30.

Which is a shame i liked both of themProbably too slow and no real weapons. Pure inside mid. A dying breed.
Like Draper?I think Melbourne have got a guy in Verrall that could be anything. I am really disappointed that the crows did not take him with the second pick we had last night as its only been injury that had held him back and when he came back from it, was very good. This one could really come back to bite the SA clubs
He could end up playing key position as well as ruck. He was being spoken of as a very high draft pick last year before injuryLike Draper?
Reckon my very dodgy memory thinks he might have been in top 5 discussions at some point.Wasn't Lemmy touted as a first rounder at the start of the year?
Yes I seem to recall a similar thingReckon my very dodgy memory thinks he might have been in top 5 discussions at some point.
Dodoro picked a mile off.........Probably too slow and no real weapons. Pure inside mid. A dying breed.
One of lemmey or scully was odds on #1 pick at one stageWasn't Lemmy touted as a first rounder at the start of the year?
Thanks for the info, pretty pumped to see what he can do. If he plays 50- 100 games your post deserves will be remembered.I think Melbourne have got a guy in Verrall that could be anything.

That's exactly what I was hoping he would do. The amateurish lack of planning and direction within the North footy department had been going on for far too long and has been crying out for someone to come in to take control.Shiels and Howe just screams Clarko getting some of his favorites on another list. Already exerting a fair bit of control not 1 month into the job...

Same spreadsheet as before, added a new tab for the rookie draft.![]()
Clarko is bringing in people he knows and trusts. I don't doubt that he will be delegating rather than micro managing. We badly needed a boost in professionalism and I believe he has already made good strides. Some of the deadwood had already been cleared out before he came, which made it a bit easier for him to make the necessary changes.You don't want it to go too far in the other direction though, as a footy club is an organism of sorts, and needs all moving parts to function independently but also together. If Clark micro-manages everything, then you end up with a lot of disgruntled people and it permeates throughout the organization.
Not saying this will happen at all, but there can be such a thing as too much control instead of delegation, which is also just as bad.
Strong, competitive and when on, can dominate a game. Strong contested marking tooThanks for the info, pretty pumped to see what he can do. If he plays 50- 100 games your post deserves will be remembered.
What stood out for you about Will?
No current season stats available
Has Todd been hanging out at Macca's the last few years, he might need an elastic Norf polo shirt if he plans to keep expanding.Clarko is bringing in people he knows and trusts.

Agreed in theory, but it would involve the AFL Players, and the AFL (with the clubs as an interested 3rd party) to sit down in the next collective bargaining agreement and work on a solution that allows for 1-year contracts for draftees, and ways of manipulating around salary caps and renegotiating existing contracts to players, that it's currently used for.This needs a major overhaul
All clubs do is recycle their primary listed players on to it…it should be designed to taking fresh players only…not redraft the same guy from one primary list to the rookie list
It’s farcical
